Swedish Police Attacked By 100 Masked Migrant Youths

Swedish police in the city of Trollhattan were attacked by up to a
hundred masked migrant youths armed with sticks and bats during a riot
in the Kronogården suburb on Thursday.

The masked migrant youths attacked the officers during the second
night of rioting in the area. They also attacked the officer’s vehicles,
slashing the tyres of two police cars. Only one man was arrested in
connection with the riots, Swedish paper Aftonbladetreports.
The riot is said to have dramatically escalated after several youths
attempted to set a tyre on fire in the street and a security guard
intervened to put out the fire. The guard was then attacked by the youths who threw stones at him.
Peter Asp, the communications officer for the City of Trollhattan,
said the riots were “power struggle for territory in the district” among
rival gangs. He claimed that the young men rioting were Somali
migrants, while the police have only said the men come originally from
an Arabic speaking country.
Police believe that the riots were sparked by an incident earlier in
the week, when children were taken away from their parents by protective
services. An administrative court ruled that the parents of the
children had physically and psychologically assaulted them.
One resident described the riots saying, “they drove a police car and
threw stones at it. I’m a little scared, and it’s really hard. I can
not sleep at night, that night I slept only three hours.”
Attacks on police in migrant-heavy suburbs have become more and more
common in Sweden in recent years. A leaked report earlier this week
showed that the number of no-go zones had increased by fifty percent in only two years.
While the report lists 23 official “vulnerable areas” some estimate that there could be as many as 55 no-go zones in Sweden.
Earlier this year Swedish police officer Peter Springare said that
migrants were committing a disproportionate amount of crime in problem
suburbs. He said that almost all of the serious criminal cases that came
across his desk involved migrants; comments that saw him investigated for “racial hatred”, although the charges were later dropped. http://www.breitbart.com/london/2017/06/17/swedish-police-attacked-100-masked-migrant-youths/
